ALTERED RENOPRESSOR RESPONSE-PATTERN TO ENDOTOXIN RADIATED WITH RADIO-FREQUENCY ENERGY
E. S. Dooley, J. Y. Gillenwater, E. D. Frohlich · 1963
Radiating S. typhosa endotoxin at 10.40 Mc/sec enhanced the first pressor response and made the second response permanently sustained, while 13.34 Mc/sec only enhanced the first response.
Plain English Summary
Researchers tested whether radio-frequency energy alters the pharmacodynamic properties of Salmonella typhosa endotoxin by irradiating it at 10.40 Mc/sec and 13.34 Mc/sec and administering it to dogs. Nonirradiated endotoxin produced a characteristic diphasic pressor response with an immediate transient mild rise followed by a more intense and prolonged rise that returned toward the pre-injection level. Endotoxin irradiated at 10.40 Mc/sec enhanced the first pressor response and caused the second response to remain permanently sustained without returning toward baseline. Endotoxin irradiated at 13.34 Mc/sec intensified the first pressor response but did not alter the second response pattern.
